THE ULTIMATE IN SIMPLICITY & VALUE
Unity is setting the standard for storage simplicity and value. Engineered from the
ground-up to meet market demands for flash, affordability and outrageous simplicity,
Unity hybrid comes in 4 scalable models;
starting with the Unity 300, and scaling
to the Unity 400, Unity 500 and then the
Unity 600. Whether you are looking for
1TB to 3PB* of storage capacity, Unity
Hybrid has you covered. (*expected to
increase later)
Unity Hybrid is the only unified storage
system that successfully meets all 4
requirements of today’s midmarket
unified IT storage professionals; simple,
modern, affordable, flexible.
Unity Hybrid Is Simple: Unity sets a new standard for simplicity in the midrange
storage market with simplified customer installation, slick user interface, intuitive
cloud enabled management and proactive assistance.
Unity Hybrid Is Modern: Unity has a modern 2U architecture designed for flash,
with support for 3D NAND TLC drives and HDDs. Unity Hybrid supports file and block
environments, point-in-time snapshots, synchronous and asynchronous replication,
built-in encryption, tiering to the cloud and deep ecosystem integration with VMware,
Microsoft and OpenStack. Designed for flash with modern EMC data protection
choices.
Unity Hybrid Is Flexible: If you are looking for a hybrid solution with automated
tiering and flash caching to support your file or block application, Unity Hybrid has you
covered. Unity is also available as a free virtual storage appliance (the Unity VSA), a
purpose-built Hybrid or All Flash system, or a converged system –one operating
system that connects them all.
Unity Hybrid Is Affordable: Our dual-active controller system was designed to
optimize the performance, density, and cost of your storage to deliver all-flash
performance for much less than you thought possible.
